It could be used for a special OSM slippy map of closed streets, e.g.:<br><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mennonot/2602625089/" target="_blank">http://www.flickr.com/photos/mennonot/2602625089/</a><br>;-)<br><font color="#888888">Pieren<br>

This would be great and incredibly useful for the general public. If we exposed a simple API for municipalities to specify which roads or road segments are under construction or closed, I bet they'd be happy to send in data. They get frustrated when people drive on their under construction roads, too!</div>
